Les Miserables in London
Enjoy Les Miserables, a moving tale of revolution
Holding the crown as the longest-running musical in the West End, the Tony and Olivier Award-winning Les Miserables has attracted over 130 million people worldwide to see it.
Known affectionately to their fans as Les Mis, this musical is based on the popular Victor Hugo book of the same title. Les Miserables features music by Claude-Michel Schonberg, lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer, original text by Alain Boublil and extra material by James Fenton. Telling an epic story set against the dramatic backdrop of a country experiencing a bloody revolution, this superb adaptation thrills audiences and fills the theatre to bursting point every night.
Les Miserables - The story
Les Miserables weaves a dramatic, edge-of-your-seat tale of revolution and romance and has been entertaining audiences since its opening in Paris more than three decades ago. It tells the moving story of the rebellious but reformed character, Jean Valjean, a man who is tormented by a relentless police officer called Javert in 19th century Paris as the French revolution rages all around. It’s heart-breaking stuff, with romantic interest provided by the student Marius who falls deeply in love with Cosette. As Javert becomes ever more of a threat to the rebels, confrontations are inevitable. But love eventually triumphs despite everything...
‘The musical to end all musicals’
A surprising number of songs from Les Miserables have become hits in their own right, independent of the musical, and you’ll adore the show’s endless stream of beautiful ballads and moving anthems. Some of Les Miserables' biggest hits include 'I Dreamed a Dream', 'On My Own' and 'Do You Hear The People Sing?' and 'Bring Him Home'. Often labelled as "The musical to end all musicals", Les Miserables tickets are hot property and the production shows no signs of flagging in popularity as the decades roll by.

It’s my first time watching a musical and I’m really thankful for the crew to give me such an unforgettable experience. So much emotion in their singing and a great story told in a vivid way!!

Went to see Les Mis for the 2nd time tonight - took my boyfriend for his first live theatre experience. It was as mind blowing as the first time I watched it. Thoroughly enjoyed every second - my boyfriend loved it too! There were a fair few tears from both of us but what more do you expect! Brilliant show - must see!

Reviewed on 25 February 2024 by Erin, Malvern, Australia
We have seen the show several times, and this was by far my most favourite interpretation. The singing was spectacular and our seat position in the back row afforded great acoustics. Sadly, there were people standing behind us who had no respect nor regard for the show and spoke and sang and made noise the entire way through. This is both sudden and angered me as a lot of the show was spoilt for all of us

I was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the performance including Val Jeans soliloquy, Javert's suicide, the Thenardiers master of the house and the scenes of the baracades. My all time favorite brought to life in stunning detail was the courtship of Marius and Cossette. The set was stunning and realistic, scene changes rapid and efficient and the audience showed their appreciation with a standing ovation. What a wonderful experience.

The play was amazing i would go again, but there was one thing that I personally find unnecessary, i did ignore it the first couple of times but then it came up again and again which was this obscene and unapropriate behaviour involving a man's gebitalia. It kind of was unnecessary and doesn't add anything to the show which again was superb.
